Common Plant Conversations
4
Do we have every asset’s
configuration program
stored some place safe
and readily accessible?
Minor changes to
stay Operational
cause major
problems later
Its running; so it
is probably fine.We lost comments
to another program
Not sure if this is the
latest version…?
If only we could get info
from our critical devices
so we would know if
something is out of spec
We might have
downloaded the
wrong program
to this machine

Automation Asset ManagementCommon Challenges
Averting Costly Downtime Not knowing what a change would do
How to roll back changes if necessary
Complex System Recovery When multiple teams work on resolving the issue
How to roll back changes if necessary
Production Environment Change Temporary changes made to keep the line running
Unauthorized & Undocumented Access Untrained/unauthorized users accessing production environment and making unauthorized changes
Power Failure With a dead battery in the controller leading to loss of a program

• Left undetected, Engineering estimated two hours
to diagnose and resolve the problem without a
change management system. Facility downtime
costs are $150,000 USD/hour!
Averting Costly DowntimeTime is Money!

N• Monitoring control system changes using FactoryTalk®
AssetCentre, a supervisor noted the change in the audit log and
found it was harmful to the process. The supervisor quickly restored
an earlier copy of the control program from the AssetCentre archive,
preventing any downtime.
• That’s a $300,000 USD savings in a single event!
• An engineer made a change to the control
program running critical equipment at the mine
site. As it turns out, this change had the potential
to damage the machinery, generating costly
downtime!

• The team made 150 changes to the control
system before it was discovered that a
mechanical problem was the true cause of the
production problem. Mechanics were able to
repair the system quickly.
• The control system was in an unknown
uncontrolled state, and production had to start
Monday morning!
Recovering Systems QuicklyWhere every minute counts!

N• The Brewing company had previously deployed FactoryTalk®
AssetCentre Change Management to fulfill other business
objectives. The Plant Controls Engineer was able to quickly roll
back the control system to a known good operating condition by
retrieving the correct control program (Golden Copy) from the
AssetCentre Source Control Archive.
• Few years back a major brewery experienced a
production problem: both electricians and
mechanics were assigned to work over a
weekend to resolve the problem that was
believed to in the automation control system.
